Today, November 9th, is when we honor the great Queen Sigrid, who was a very powerful woman for her times. She was first married to the king of Sweden, Eric Segarsall. After his death she was chased after by many men whose attention she did not want. Her solution was to get them all in one place and during a feast burned down their great hall. A strong woman indeed !Olaf Tryggvasson, the King of Norway, wanted her hand in marriage as well, but demanded she convert to Christianity. When she refused because she would not part with her ancestors faith, Olaf slapped her. She then told Olaf that this would be his death and set about to make this happen.To destroy the Christian King, Olaf Tryggvasson, she married the Danish King Sven Forkbeard, and then with him built a series of alliances and armies to kill him. These allies met Olaf Tryggvasson at the battle of Swold where his army was defeated at sea and Olaf was killed when he jumped overboard. So to great Queen Sigrid I raise my horn in a salute of honor. For all you did for your people, your honor, and your / our religion I cry out in honor Skal !!!!!!Glenn BergenGo with Odin' s wisdom, Freyja's love and Thor's protection !
